The Gerald Legacy, Part 1: Politics and Old Men

This is my first Sims 3 Legacy. Here's out founder, Libby Gerald. She's ambitious, handy, hot-headed, neat and a workaholic. She's also freakin' adorable. Looks sort of like a pixie. Her lifetime wish is Jack of All Trades, which is where you get to level 5 in four different career tracks, because one job would be boring.





The first thing I do is get her job, and she rolls a want (wish, I'm just so used to 'rolling a want') for a job in Politics. She goes downtown to get one.















After getting hired, she finds a protest outisde and decides to join in, probably because she's really, really anti-...Yeti? Or Pro-Yeti? Hmm.

Meanwhile, while Libby has slowly been moving up the political ladder, she often goes out and makes friends, not only to build her charisma to get promoted, but in search for a husband. She's found no one she really likes, just some really good friends, until one day at the beach, she starts talking to someone she thought she wouldn't even barely be attracted to.



His name is Iqbal Alvi and despite their age differences, she an young adult, he an adult with two teenager sons, they quickly find each other falling in love.




Libby is excited to have found someone and wants to get married as quickly as possible, but night is falling and she has to work tomorrow. So she bids her new lover goodnight and leaves.


Libby's getting promotions very quickly. Her workaholic, ambitious attitude is perfect for politics.
Does that driver look like Vita Alto to anyone but me? Or Nancy Landgraab. Hm.











Whenever things break down in her "house", Libby fixes them with ease and swagger. She's handy after all. By randomly tinkering with this shower she has not, in fact, managed to get herself killed and instead, accidentally upgraded it; now it's self-cleaning. Libby WIN.








When Libby goes to invite Iqbal over to get married, it turns out he's aged- literally overnight. Oh hmm. However, Libby loves hims so much, she doesn't seem to care- or notice, for that matter, and promptly proposes to him. Gleefully, almost like a woman, Iqbal accepts and Libby asks if would like to stay the night.









The next day, after work, at sunset, they get married. It's sweet and Libby is a blushing red-headed bride for her overweight bald-headed groom. He brings 8,000 simoleons and his two teenager sons, VJ and Miraj, who both, for the time being, take the name 'Gerald'.

Until next time, where we welcome the 2nd generation and not much else happens.
Oh, quick. Iqbal Alvi: angler, neurotic, couch potato, I dunno what else. His lifetime goal is the Perfect Aquarium, so it's not gonna happen. And he's in the business career.
